When a data provider application is not performing, it can quickly become your biggest problem when integrating with the ConfD Data Provider API. Over the years, we've seen ConfD users struggle with some common pitfalls and misunderstandings late in their development cycle in various Data Provider API integrations.

Have you signed up for the NETCONF & YANG Automation Testing Program (NYAT)?
The NYAT program is easy to join and provides you with instructions and technical support to perform NETCONF and YANG interoperability and automation best practices testing using Cisco Network Services Orchestrator (NSO) and additional tools. This free program is available to Network Element Providers (NEPs) who implement NETCONF and YANG in their products. Technical support, along with full documentation for both the setup and use of the test tools, is provided as part of the program.
In case you missed our NMDA webinar last month, it's available on-demand.
NMDA helps extend the original set of NETCONF datastores by adding two new datastores: Intended and Operational.
Watch "Network Management Datastore Architecture (NMDA)" to learn not only the purpose of these new datastores but also:

Many ConfD DP API integration projects start simple, implementing just the get_elem() and get_next() callbacks. While keeping the integration simple is often a good strategy, if you know there are large lists in various forms, implementing the DP API get_next() and get_elem() callbacks may be a waste of time.
A new example project called confdgnmi has been started at ConfD-Developer on GitHub. The project implements an example gNMI Adapter using existing ConfD APIs.
